TIMBER CULTURE.
Some Reasons why Every Farmer should
Start II Maple Grove.


Soft naples can be grown from seed
large enough to tap in from twelve to
fifteen years, and although their sap
is not as sweet as that from the sugar
maple, the sirup is as good have
frequently tapped young trees to make
little srup for family use, and | find
tina, they grow so rapidly that when
tapped with half-inch bit. the wound
heals so thoroughly that before fall the
bark has closed up so smoothly that no
one can tell where the tapping was
done. The cost of starting a planta-
tion of five hundred maple trees would
be very small, as there is no Seeding
so easily and cheaply grown. They
would add great beauty to the farm,
and if arranged in wind-brcaks along
the north and west they would pro-
teet the fields, so that if strip two
rods wide was given mp to them, along
both borders of the farm, more grain
would be grown than if all the land
was cultivated
My soft naples, planted in 1868.
some of which were set but two or
three feet apart in the row, will now
measure from one to nearly two feet in
diameter a foot from the ground, and |
have trees grown from seed planted in
1870 which girth over three feet. and
which have been tapped for several
years. My statement that timber
belt. occupying two rods wide, would
enable the fields to grow more grain
than if all was planted, is entirely with
in bounds. and believe that if such
belts We're planted every forty rods it
would still be true, although | do not
think it necessary to plant SO close as
this.
In the spring of 1885. which was per
haps the most disastrous to wheat of
any year for "A generation, when below
the line of snow protection in Ohio our
wheat made an average of less than
five bushels to the acre, many counties
falling as low as three or four bushels.
the only fields which produced crop
worth harvesting were those protected
by timber belts or tall hedges rode
through my own and adjoining counties
in April and it was noticeable that no.
where, except in the lee of timber or
hedges, could any green wheat be seen.
have often seen field of corn dam
aged from ten to twenty per cent. by
wind-storm, when the field adjoining
with timber on the windward side
would escape entirely. Pasture lands
bordered with good wind-breaks will be
ready to turn stock upon some days
earlier in the spring, and the stock will
be more comfortable than if exposed to
the full sweep Of the winds. There is
no mystery about timber culture, and
the farmer who begins it will find it as
simple and easy as starting corn
crop. and after the second year no cul
tivation or care will be required

SHE LOVED MUCH,

When am dead,
And friends speak low, and come with quie,
tread
To look their last upon a still, sad face
That now hath found grace
Deaths sweet release
o'erspreading it with calm of perfect peace
And this at last thoy see,
What will they say Of mei
They can not say;
,she made such light and sunshine round ou
way,
We meet great loss: we can not bear the DAYS
Slow turning on in their accustomed ways;
There Is no sweetness left,
Since OF her presence glad we are bereft"
No no it can not be
They will say thus Of me.
They can not say
"such gifts were hers, the wo rid will pause %
day
To utter words OF prase-sweet tribute due
To one so blessed-and, bravey true,
SO worthy OF her trust,
Sleep well, beloved, the great world will be
just"
know il can not be
They will say thus of me.
Alas they can not say:
"She was so good, so pure IN heart Away
Her holy life was our true guiding star;
We can not see Gods mercy-angels are
SO plentiful up there;
We had but one, and that they could not spare. {"
Alas IL ear not be
They will say thus of me-
Dear friend, make one claim,
When oeT my bier yc think Of all the blame
or this poor life, remembering the grief
The penitential love-God's sweet relief
Say, as he said OF such:
"She is forgiven all; she loved much"
And this is all and it shall be

Discovery Of Ancient Coin,

A treasure dating back two centuries
has been discovered In an old house
standing in a garden in the Rue Gaiande,
in Paris. The landlady was having some
repairs executed and gas laid on, and the
workmen, on tearing down the paper in
room on tho ground floor, found, artfully
concealed in recess in the wall, an iron
box containing wills and family papers
dating from the year 1894, with a quantity
Of coin, among which were about one
hundred and sixty foreign gold pieces Of
the size Of dou ble-louis. The next day
tho workmen, In digging in the garden TO
lay down the gasppes, came upon anoth-
er box with twelve hundred pieces Of
gold and silver of tho same kind.

Beware Of the ssif-Dsnying Girl.

"Ohi give me love, no more I'll ask"
sings a poetess. She thinks so just now,
probably, but before she's three months
married she'll be wanting TO put on as
much style as any body, even TO q drome-
dairy hustle and seven story hat to wear
at the theatre. The girl that refuses
caramels and ice-cream during courtship
is the one that wants camers hair
shawl, diamond earrings and spitz dog
with a coin silver collar the moment the
honeymoon Is over.

A Pleasure shared Inv Women Only.

Malherbe, the gifted French author do
clared that of all things that man possesses,
women alone take pleasure in being pos
sessed. This seems generally true Of the
sweeter sex. Like the ivy plant, she longs
for an object TO cling TO and iove-to look TO
for protection. This being her prerogative,
ought she not to be told that DIR. Pierce's
Fayorite Prescription is the physical saliva
ton of her sexi 1t banishes those distress
ing maladies that make her life burden,

orders, Inflammation and liberation, pro-

pochondria, and promotes refreshing sleep.

VALUE OF CiVlLiTY.
The Momentous Importance of the Small
Courtesies of Life.

There would be fewer broken friend
ships, fewer unhappy unions and
family quarrels, were it not so much
the custom among intimate friends
and relations to neglect the small
courtesies of life, to show less and less
mutual Difference as they grow more
and more familiar. 1t is the founda-
ton of misery in marriage, and many q
serious and lifelong estrangement has
begun, not from want of affection so
much as from lack of that delicate and
instructive appreciation of the feelings
of others which makes a person shrink
from saying unpleasant things or find
ing fault, unless absolutely obliged. and
in any case to avoid wounding the Of
tenders sense of dignity or stirring up
within him feelings of opposition and
animosity; for although many per-
sons profess to be above taxi
ing otlense at honest CEN
sure, and even seem TO court criticism,
yet il must be very carefully admins
tered not to be unpalatable Even
kind and generous actions are often so
uncouthly performed as to cause the
recipient more pain than pleasure,
while a reproof or denial may be so
sweetened by courtesy as almost to do
away with any sense of modification
or disappointment. Good breeding is
always inclined to form n favorable
Judgment, and to give others the
credit of being actuated by worthy mo-
tves. 1t does not wish or seem to
know more about people than they
themselves desire should be known,
but it is always prepared, when neces-
sarv, to take an interest in the affairs
of others, while self is not suffered to
obtrude unduly. Christian at Work.
